Wetterling ad

Posted at 5:18 PM on September 18, 2006 by Bob Collins (1 Comments)

Patty Wetterling --that's Patricia Wetterling officially, I guess -- is out with her new TV ad, which I think is the first.

Here it is.

What's with the black and white? Ever notice in those "negative ads," what they do with the photos and video of the "other " candidate?

Yep, black and white.

What would been effective with this ad -- if they really wanted black-and-white stuff -- is at the end, when they put the picture of Wetterling up and she says "paid for by ..." whatever -- tkae her black and white picture and slowly have it become a color picture.

Patty Wetterling, a one-issue candidate who failed in the last election is running ads which clearly imply the Republicans are engaged in a cover-up of a pedophile (Foley). She was on ms-nbc today. Obviously she doesnt know about all the child sex scandals of the Democrats (ie. Studds). The real point is that the investigation is not complete, and blame will cover both parties equally, but to use this for political gain is very sleazy.


"Patty Wetterling, a Democrat running for an open House seat in Minnesota, targets Republican leaders in a new television ad.

"For a over a year they knowingly ignored the welfare of children to protect their own power," the ad says.
